Hey, so I have a 2 year engagement with my fiancé (God I love calling him that) but we want to get married in March or April 2017. We've been looking for outdoor venues but part of me is worried about the rain, especially in April. I'm also thinking of having the ceremony at Trinity Cathedral and the reception at a hotel, and I'm particularly interested in Citizen Hotel but I am open to other ones too. The thing though is that many of these hotels have preferred vendors. Say though I have a photographer I want that is not in the preferred vendors list. Will that be an issue or will they charge me more? I hate how they have those...
